James Monroe Iglehart to play Louis Armstrong in Broadway-aimed bio-musical A WONDERFUL WORLD

Fan123 said: "Thanks for the review. On the flipside, a common criticism of biomusicals is that they sugarcoat the lives of their subjects too much, downplaying their flaws and unsavoury choices. I'll be interested to hear whether others think that this show goes too far in the other direction instead."

When I saw Suffs, one of my prevailing thoughts was that the show went very hard on Alice Paul because people criticize Hamilton for being too nice to him and they were trying their absolute hardest to avoid that. (I have no idea if all the criticism of her was deserved, I just observed it was present) 

Wouldn't be surprised if it's the same thing here in response to glorification in other bio-jukebox musicals.
